﻿"It’s the End of the World and They Know It: How Dystopian Fiction Shapes Political Attitudes"
Authors: Calvert W. Jones and Celia Paris

Analysis was performed using Stata 12. 

In Stata 12, the do file dystopian_pop_analysis.do was used for all analyses shown in all tables. 

The analysis do file calls three cleaning do files (available upon request from authors):
	dystopian_pop_mtcleaning.do (cleans Study 1 data)
	dystopian_pop_stu1cleaning.do (cleans Study 2 data)
	dystopian_pop_stu2cleaning.do (cleans Study 3 data)
	
The anonymized raw data files called by the cleaning do files (available upon request from authors) are:
	anontoclean_mturk_popculture_data_041515.1036am.csv (Study 1)
	anontoclean_Student_Pop_Culture_and_Political_Attitudes_Study_2_021916.csv (Study 2)
	anontoclean_Student_Pop_Culture_and_Political_Attitudes__Nonfiction_FollowUp.csv (Study 3)
	
The three cleaning do files together generate the cleaned, merged dataset used to produce all analyses:
	Clean_First3_Dystop.csv (Contains data for all three studies)
	Clean_First3_Dystop.dta (Stata format)
	Clean_First3_Dystop.sav (SPSS format)

Figures were first created in Excel (using the means from the Stata output), then connectors and asterisks 
added using Powerpoint.  The figures can also be generated in SPSS using the files included in the dataverse.  
Clean_First3_Dystop.sav is the SPSS file that was imported from Clean_First3_Dystop.csv after it was imported 
into Excel.  Run the syntax file (SPSS_syntax_figures.sps) against the Clean_First3_Dystop.sav dataset to generate 
preliminary figures from the actual data.  The y axis number formats, bar colors, connectors, and asterisks are 
then added manually.  The logfile that results is SPSS_logfile_figures.spv.
